grape expectations

How would you like to start off your morning like this every day? I do! I don't think I will ever tire of seeing the sun come over the distant mountains. Thank you LORD for another day!

Today my sister Lori and my nephew Richard arrive. Tomorrow my brother Roger and the kids come for the day (Cheryl has to work :( ). Should be fun!!!

We've been having some landscaping stuff done around here. I mentioned the young men with the earth auger who planted all our trees. While they were here with the handy dandy heavy equipment, they also put in this split rail fence:

which will be the home of our grape vines. Can't you see it now: the fence covered with vines heavy laden with grapes. Then I'll be making grape jelly, jam and grape juice! Yummy!

Got some errands to run now: the flea market, the farmer's market (they have puppies at the flea market, but I know they are of suspicious heritage so I will try to be strong....).

Hi, Cheri, thanks for stopping by & leaving a note. So very nice to meet you. I can see there are lots of us who do have a kindred spirit on buying the old things and making them work for us. It's so nice to be able to hang out in blogland with all of you too!
